FIGS. 24-33 depict different views of the pipe sensor housing of FIGS. 9 and 13, with various lines changed to broken lines to indicate that such lines are disclaimed subject matter and with various dash-dash-dot lines indicating boundary lines between claimed subject matter and unclaimed subject matter. The shading from these Figures has been removed for clarity issues. FIGS. 24-33 also depict views of the pipe sensor housing with various features and lines removed

FIGS. 34-38 depict views of the pipe sensor unit and pipe sensor housing with screws,

FIG. 44 is a top view of the pipe sensor housing face plate of FIG. 39 shown with cross-section lines indicating the section planes for FIGS. 45 and 46.

FIG. 45 is a cross-sectional view taken along line 45-45 of FIG. 44; and,

FIG. 46 is a cross-sectional view taken along line 46-46 of FIG. 44.

The pipe sensor unit in the accompanying figures may be positioned on a fluid conduit, such as a pipe or a standpipe.

The pipe sensor unit of FIGS. 1-8 may include a pipe sensor housing that has a face plate with a face, and a pipe clamp attached to the pipe sensor housing. The pipe sensor unit may be positioned on the fluid conduit, such as a pipe, so that the face of the pipe sensor housing, seen in FIGS. 3, 5, 6, 8, 10, may face the pipe.

Stipple shading is used in the accompanying Figures to convey surface contouring and not texture. The tangent edges, for the sake of clarity, represent transitions between a surface and a rounded surface, i.e., where these two surfaces are tangent to one another.

Broken lines are used to depict features or elements that are not considered to be part of the claimed design, as evidenced by the removal of shading within the disclaimed features and elements, and the presence of shading outside of the disclaimed features and elements. Dash-dot-dash boundary lines are used herein to indicate a transition from claimed subject matter to unclaimed subject matter, as evidenced by the absence of shading within the boundary shape and the presence of shading outside of the boundary shape. 

CLAIM We claim the ornamental design for a pipe sensor unit, as shown and described.
